The day is going to lighten;
They are raising the scaffold,
Arrange without delay for
Marguerite to follow you.
The jailer is sleeping; here are the keys,
It requires your man's hand¸ to free her.

Leave us alone!

Hasten! Me, I will keep watch outside!

My heart is penetrated by dread!
O torture! O source of regrets
and eternal remorse!
It's she! There she is, the sweet creature,
Thrown at the back of a prison
Like a vile criminal!
Despair has deranged her reason!
Her poor infant, Oh God!
Her poor infant, killed, killed by her!
Marguerite

Ah! It is the voice of my beloved!
At his call, my heart is reanimated!

Marguerite!

In the midst of your bursts of laughter,
You demons who are all around me,
I have recognized his voice!

Marguerite!

His hand, his sweet hand attracts me!
I am free! He is here!
I am free! He is here!
I hear him, I see him!
Yes, it's you; I love you,
Yes, it's you; I love you,
The irons, death itself
No longer make me afraid.
You have found me; you have found me,
See, I am saved; see, I am saved!
It's you, I am next to your heart!

Yes, it is I, I love you,
Yes, it is I, I love you,
Despite the effort of even the demon mocker
I have found you again, I have found you,
See, you are saved, you are saved,
Come, come, next to my heart!

Wait! Here is the street where you saw me
For the first time, where your hand
Dared to almost brush against my fingers.
"Wouldn't you permit me,
My beautiful lady,
To offer you an arm
To escort you on your way?"
"No, sir, I am neither
a lady nor beautiful, a lady nor beautiful,
And I do not need
for anyone to give me his hand."

Yes, my heart remembers...
But, follow me, the hour is passing...

And here is the charming garden,
Perfumed with myrtle and roses,
Where each evening discretely
You entered after dark...

Come, come, Marg. Come, let us flee!

No! No! Stay awhile!

O heaven!... She doesn't hear me!

Alarm! Alarm! or you are lost!
If you delay anymore
I will no longer be involved!

The demon...the demon! Do you see him?
There ...in the shadows
Fixing on us his eye of fire?
What does he want of us?
Chase him from this holy place!

Let's leave this dark place,
Day has dawned;
By their sonorous steps
I hear our horses tapping the cobblestones.
Come, let's save her!
Maybe there is still time to do it!

Let's hasten! The hour sounds!
Already the day floods, floods the sky!
Let us hasten! Let us hasten
To leave this place,
Already the day is flooding the sky!
Follow our steps, follow our steps
Come, or I will abandon you!
Let us hasten! Let us hasten
To leave this place,
Already the day is flooding the sky!
Judged!!

Saved! Christ is brought to life!
Christ has just been reborn!
Peace and joy to disciples of the master!
Christ has just been reborn!
Christ has just been reborn!
Christ is brought to life!
